Abstract (en)

Space for an optical pickup at a position set aside from a disk accommodating section is to be compressed, thereby to reduce an overall size of an optical pickup device. For such a purpose, the optical pickup unit is held by a screw shaft (2) and a guide shaft (3) parallel to each other, and the screw shaft, the guide shaft, a first connecting plate (4) and a second connecting plate (5) constitute a quadrilateral parallel link. The screw shaft and a chassis (13) holding a turntable (15) are oscillated by a driving motor (14) pivoting on the first connecting plate. In an escape position in which the optical pickup device is away from the disk accommodating section (100), a gap between the screw shaft and the guide shaft is narrowed.
